Advanced Clinical Pharmacist - Neonates

Band 8a

Liverpool Women’s NHS FT became part of NHS University Hospitals of Liverpool Group (UHLG) in November 2024, following the coming together with Liverpool University Hospitals NHS FT. UHLG was born from a shared aim to improve the care we provide to our patients.

UHLG is one of the largest employers in the region, with over 16,800 colleagues who are dedicated to caring for our communities - from birth and beyond. For the 630,000 people across Merseyside, UHLG is also their local NHS, providing general and emergency hospital care, alongside highly specialised regional services for more than two million people in the North West.

At Liverpool Women’s Hospital, each year we deliver approximately 7,500 babies, carry out around 50,000 gynaecological inpatient and outpatient procedures, care for over 1,000 poorly and premature newborns, perform around 1,000 IVF cycles, and conduct over 4,000 genetic appointments.

We believe that this, along with a strong dedication to research and innovation, makes us the specialist health provider of choice in Europe for women, babies and families.

Liverpool Women’s has an excellent reputation and is a centre of excellence. It is an exciting environment to work in and a great place to develop your career for many years to come.

Trosolwg o'r swydd

Liverpool Women’s NHS Foundation Trust (LWH) and Alder Hey Children’s Hospital are working in partnership to change and improve how neonatal services are delivered to families across the Northwest.

Improvements have already been made to the way neonatal care is being delivered, including colleagues from both hospitals working more closely together across both sites under the formation of the Liverpool Neonatal Partnership (LNP). The Neonatal Unit at Liverpool Women’s Hospital has also been recently redeveloped and a newly built Neonatal Intensive and High Dependency Care Unit opened in 2020. The next phase in the development is a new 22 cot Surgical Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (SNICU) at Alder Hey. The unit is expected to be open at the end of 2026. 

As post holder, you will cover 12 months maternity leave and support neonatal services in Liverpool across both sites under the partnership. You will become part of the well-established multidisciplinary team and will be involved in the delivery of core pharmacy and enhanced clinical services to the neonatal speciality. 

If you share our commitment to provide excellent healthcare for women, babies and their families in a safe, friendly and caring environment, and share our values, then we would be delighted to hear from you.
